21 Connecting the Power Cable (Supplied) Before plugging in the power cable/cord, en- sure that all devices have been connected. 1 2 PowerCable (Supplied) 1 Connect the supplied power cable to the power input terminal of this unit 2 Connect the earth wire to the earth terminal available in the building, followed by inserting the mains plug of the supplied power cable into the wall outlet Precautions Against Fire and Electric Shock • Since the power consumption of this unit is high, insert the power plug directly into a wall outlet and not into a multiway adaptor. • When not using devices, remove the power plug from the wall outlet. • Do not use power cords for connection other than those supplied. • Do not use a power voltage different from that which is indicated. • Do not cut, tear or modify the power cords. Also, do not place a heavy object on, heat or stretch the power cords as this may cause dam- age to the cords. • Do not insert or pull out plugs with a wet hand.
22 Basic Operation After installation, the projector will require initial set-up, adjustment, alignment and con- figuration (see next page). Once this has been done, the unit can be used simply by following these basic operational procedures.

Consult your dealer for more information. . The OPERATE indicator on the projector lights up and the projected image slowly appears. • Upon projection, the image may flicker for a few seconds. This is not a fault. • When the light source is turned on, the lamp will slowly become brighter. It will take more than a minute for the brightness to stabilize. • When video sources employing copy-protection (HDCP) are in use, it may take a while for the image to appear, due to the projector and its source ‘handshaking’ 4 Adjusting zoom (image size) and focus • These adjustments should normally be carried out as part of initial set-up. If the message ‘not available’ is displayed on-screen, these features have been locked out, and you will need to go to the Options menu to unlock them. To enlarge the screen size, press the ZOOM T button (button 8 on the remote). To reduce the screen size, press the ZOOM W button (button 0 on the remote). Adjust the focus set- ting with the FOCUS +/- buttons (2 and 5 on the remote). 5 Hiding the image temporarily Press the HIDE button • The displayed image will disappear. Press the HIDE button again to restore the image. 6 Turning off the power Press the OPERATE OFF button on the panel, or the OFF button on the remote, for 1 second or more The OPERATE indicator turns off, the Standby indicator starts blinking and the projector switches to the cool down mode. The cool down mode will last for about 60 seconds to allow the light source to cool off. • The projector switches automatically into stand- by mode at the end of the cool down mode. • The OPERATE OFF button will not work until about a minute has passed after the light source has been turned on. If necessary, wait for this to happen. CAUTION: Do not pull out the plug when the Standby indicator is blinking. This may shorten the lamp life and cause a malfunction. Precautions During Use This unit makes use of a light source that reaches a high temperature during projection. Do not allow projection under the following conditions; doing so may cause fire or mal- function of the projector: • Projection with the unit laid on its sides • Projection with the unit installed in an un- reasonable angle. Avoid using this unit at an inclined angle. Doing so may cause unevenness in the colour or shorten the lamp life. • Projection at a location that blocks the air inlets or exhaust vents (see page 1) • Projection without removing the lens cap.

Wait a minute before trying to make further adjustments. • Altering the Power Save setting does not affect the lamp usage time (lamp life) of the light- source. 4 Information Menu • Options under this menu show information only: no settings are available. Lamp Time Displays the accumulated hours of usage of the light-source lamp. Source Automatically identifies the input video signal at the projector’s DVI input, and displays the signal name (‘1080p50’ or ‘1080p60’). • No signal name will be displayed if no signal is present, or if the signal is not one of the above types (‘Out of range’ will be displayed in the lat- ter case). NOTES: • When the input video signal is switched, a blue screen will appear for about 2 seconds. • When nothing is connected to the [DVI] termi- nal, or if there is no video signal, a ‘No Signal DVI-D’ message will be projected. • In the case of a video signal that cannot be used with this unit, an ‘Out of Range’ message will be projected. • Video input signals that can be used with this unit are 1080/50p and 1080/60p signals via the DVI-D input.
2 The life of light-source lamps used for this unit is about 2000 hours. • The lamp life of 2000 hours is merely the aver- age life span of light-source lamps and we do not provide any guarantee for this figure. The lamp life may not reach 2000 hours depend- ing on the operating conditions. Deterioration progresses rapidly when the remaining lamp usage time is short. Get ready or replace with a new lamp unit when the accumulated usage time exceeds 1900 hours. Depending on the operating conditions, the lamp may have to be exchanged earlier. If the image is dark or colour tone abnormal, replace the lamp as soon as possible. • You can also check the accumulated hours of usage. Please refer to ‘Lamp Time’ in the ‘Infor- mation’ menu. • Setting ‘Power Save’ in the ‘Options’ menu to ‘On’ does not affect the usage time of the light- source lamp. Please consult your authorised dealer when purchasing a new lamp unit. Replacement Lamp (Lamp Unit) Part No.: BHL5008-S IMPORTANT: The lamp unit resembles that used in other projectors of this type. However the lamps are quite different and the lamp housings are not interchangeable. Install only the correct lamp assembly for this projector: attempting to force a different lamp unit to fit may permanently damage the projector or cause a serious malfunction. It will also void your warranty. When the lamp usage time exceeds 1900 hours (but is under 2000 hours) The LAMP indicator lights up and the TEMP indicator starts blinking upon turning on the power (standby mode). A ‘Lamp replacement’ message will be dis- played on the screen when projection starts. • The message can be cleared by pressing any button on the remote control or this unit. When the lamp usage time exceeds 2000 hours (but is under 2010 hours): The LAMP indicator lights up and the FAN indicator starts blinking upon turning on the power (standby mode). When the lamp usage time exceeds 2000 hours during projection, a ‘Lamp replacement’ message will be displayed on the screen when projection starts and the ‘Warning’ mark will appear blinking. • Press the [EXIT] button to clear the display. However, the same Warning and Lamp re- placement messages will be displayed after 1 hour. • When the unit is switched to the standby mode or turned off after the lamp usage time exceeds 2000 hours, it cannot be switched back to the projection mode again. In this case, replace with a new lamp unit and reset the lamp time. When the lamp usage time reaches 2010 hours The unit exits from the projection mode (operating mode) and switches into cool down mode. • The LAMP indicator will light up and the TEMP and FAN indicators will appear blinking. • The projection mode (operating mode) cannot be restored until a new lamp unit is installed and the lamp time reset. About Lamp Replacement • If this unit is installed in a constricted place, attempting to replace the lamp in situ may be difficult or even cause injury. Move this unit to a place large enough to perform the operation. • Use only genuine replacement parts for the lamp unit. Otherwise, malfunction may occur. • Never attempt to re-use an old lamp unit. This may cause marked performance deterioration or lamp blowout, which may be explosive. Broken pieces of the lamp outside the projector may also be dangerous during lamp unit exchange. • Do not replace the lamp immediately after the projector has been in use. The temperature of the lamp is still high and this may cause a burn. Allow a cooling period of 1 hour or more before replacement. • Before replacing the lamp unit, pull out the power plug from the outlet on the rear of the unit while the Standby indicator is still on. Re- placing a lamp with the plug connected to the outlet may cause injuries or electric shocks. Replacing the Lamp
2 Lamp Replacement Procedure 1 Remove the control panel cover • See page 10 for details on removing the control panel cover. 2 Loosen the screw and remove the lamp cover • Undo the retaining screw with a ‘+’ screwdriver. 3 Loosen the screws on the lamp unit and lift up the handle • Loosen the 2 screws with a ‘+’ screwdriver. 4 Pull out the lamp unit Control Panel Cover LampCover Handle LampUnit
2 5 Slide in the new lamp unit until it is fully inserted Handling the new Lamp Unit Do not touch the glass surface of the lamp directly with your hand or stain it. Touching it with a bare hand may dirty the surface, hence shortening the lamp life, causing marked performance deterioration, image darkening, lamp blowout and other problems. 6 Tighten the screws of the lamp unit and fold down the handle • Fasten the 2 screws with a ‘+’ screwdriver. 7 Re-attach the lamp cover and fasten the screw • Fasten the screw with a ‘+’ screwdriver. NOTE: When fitting the lamp cover, insert the left end (with 2 claws) of the lamp cover into the unit, followed by ensuring that the pro- truding part on the reverse side of the lamp cover fits snugly into the recess. As this protru- sion acts as a switch, misfitting may stop the projector from operating. 8 Re-attach the control panel cover Handling the Control Panel Cover • The gap between this unit and the control panel cover is narrow. Be careful not to trap your fin- ger in the gap between the projector body and the control panel cover. • Be careful of the protrusions and corners of components to avoid injury. • After attaching the control panel cover, check that the lock is fastened. The control panel cover may drop and cause injury. LampCover Control Panel Cover Fasten the lock on the control panel cover
0 Resetting Lamp Time After installing a new lamp unit, the lamp time must be reset before the projector can be used. Resetting the lamp time resets the inter- nal counter to zero hours. NOTE: if the previous lamp had accumulated over 2,000 hours of use, the projector will not operate until the lamp time has been reset. 1 Reconnect power to the projector • The main power turns on and the Standby indi- cator on the unit lights up. 2 Point the remote control unit at one of the sensors on the projector. On the remote, press the EXIT, ENTER and HIDE buttons one after the other, then press and hold the DOWN button for 2 seconds or more • The STANDBY and OPERATE indicators will blink alternately for a total of about 3 seconds. After blinking stops, lamp time resets and the unit re- turns to the standby mode (STANDBY indicator lights up). The lamp time counter has now been reset and a new count will start. • If the accumulated lamp time has reached 2000 hours, the projector will not function (lamp will not light up) unless the lamp time is reset. Check the lamp time has been reset The lamp time can be checked via the ‘Lamp Time’ option on the ‘Information’ menu. WARNING Reset the lamp time only when you have replaced the lamp. Never reset it when the lamp is still in use. Otherwise, the approximate standard for gauging replacement time may be inaccurate, lamp performance may deteriorate and lamp blowout may occur. Cleaning and Replacing the Filter Clean the filter regularly. Otherwise, air intake efficiency may deteriorate and the projector may overheat. If the filter is extremely dirty and cannot be cleaned, or if it is damaged, replace the filter with a new one. (inner filter: LC32058•002A). Running the unit with a damaged filter (or without one at all) may allow dust to enter the projector and appear on the screen, preventing you from enjoying the video fully. If dirt has entered the unit or if you need information about the filter, please consult your authorised dealer. 1 Disconnect power from the projector • Pull out the power plug from the connector on the rear of the unit while the Standby indicator is still on. 2 Remove the inner filter • Push up and lift the clip at the base of the inner filter, and draw out the filter assembly. Clip InnerFilter 3 Clean the filter • Clean the filter with water and dry it, avoiding direct sunlight. If it is extremely dirty, use a neu- tral detergent. Don’t scrape it or use a vacuum cleaner.
